The California Mallards knocked off the Texas Isotopes, 14-4, at Duck Dome. Tony Bonilla, who captured player of the game honors, was a big reason California won. The catcher went 3-5 with a home run and a double. He scored 2 runs and drove in 4. The Isotopes drop to 8-8 and continue their inconsistent start to the 2043 season.

Jesús Pérez swatted a 3-run home run for California in the bottom of the third. The shortstop went 2 for 3 for the game, including 1 home run and 1 double. He scored 2 runs and batted in 3.

"We'll put this win in our pocket and go after the next one," said Bonilla.
